Just my take on it...pretty sure most people on this thread believe MJ was better than King James.
But please, give us your expert analysis my prickly friend.
NBA: Jordan vs Lebron

But please, give us your expert analysis my prickly friend.
I care.
Rodman only played in the league for over a decade and played on several championship teams. I’m pretty sure he’s an expert when it comes to basketball. I’ll take his opinion about basketball over the ‘expert’ posters on these threads that probably didn’t play past high school...
92-93 Bulls Season (with Jordan): 57-25 regular season record
93-94 Bulls Season (without Jordan): 55-27 regular season record
09-10 Cavs Season (with Lebron): 61-21 regular season record
10-11 Cavs Season (without Lebron): 19-63 regular season record
Just guessing but curious if anyone on here who thinks Lebron is better than MJ is above the age of 30?
Curious if any person who thinks MJ is better has watched basketball in the last 20 years.
MJ wouldn't even be top 10 in today's game.
And that under 30 crowd gets so triggered at the thought that anyone could be better than their king.
Says the boomers who shriek Michael Jordan at the top of their lungs at any mention of LeBron.
Go back and watch how physical those teams were. Lebron has the skills but does he have the backbone to play the way they did back then? Bill Laimbeer would have made him cry. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bl...aimbeers-combat-sports-career-nba-mma-history
Right on- your stats are legit and I appreciate you posting them. However, a couple other thoughts regarding the numbers you’ve presented:
a) I think your stats reinforce my point- MJ took those guys and made them into warriors...they didn’t need MJ to win every night. MJ built a solid core of supporting players, sort of a next man up mentality. Not to say they didn’t miss MJ, but MJ built a true team, not one built on one guy.
b) Do your stats account for players who were added or lost from the previous seasons’ rosters? If the Cavs lost a key player or two in addition to King James, maybe that accounts for the huge drop in losses...?
What say you sir?
Guilty as charged your honor. I’m in my 40’s...
So maybe there’s some generational bias at play here...?
Let’s flip it: are there any MJ supporters who are U30? I think I know the answer to this...
has this been posted yet??
it's all that really matters...

What a spinzone on a). Made them into warriors. Give me a break.
LeBron was given absolutely nobody on his first stint with the Cavs. Who was the second best player when he made the finals in 07? LARRY HUGHES! LARRY HUGHES! Michael Jordan could never!
Then he dragged them to the finals and had Golden State on the ropes on his second stint with ******* Matthew Delledevoda as the second best player.
Then the next year wins the finals after going down 3-1 in the finals to the all time winningest team in nba history? And wins it all?! In Cleveland?!
But no according to the MJ disciples, LeBron doesn't have the winning mentality and can't win.
He's won at 3 different cities!
Get the **** outta here
Maybe the dumbest post of the year on CF.
